“UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Chuck Liddell’s incoherent appearance on the AM TV Talk Show ‘Good Morning Texas,’ was attributed to illness commented both Liddell and his longtime trainer John Hackleman to The Fight Network this afternoon.

‘I am sick and rundown and need to get back to training,’ Liddell emailed me this afternoon. Trainer Hackleman says Liddell has a sinus infection and took the sleep medication Nyquil at 4 AM to try and get rest.”

Gah, that's just uncomfortable as all hell to watch. However, 300 is going to kick ridiculous amounts of ass, and Chuck Liddell beat the shit out of the guy who's fucking Jenna Jameson in his free time, so I think he gets a pass. Which is why you need to see the douchebag host call out Liddell after the fact.

Seriously, watch that linked video, and tell me it's a good idea to be a balding gap-toothed dipshit making fun of a man with a mohawk and a Fu Manchu. Who kicks ass for a living. I hope Liddell comes back on the show to tear that guy's heart out with his bare hand. And if he's doped up on NyQuil at the time, even better.

Chuck has taken shots from some of the toughest guys in the world (and Tito Ortiz) for over ten years now.

What’s the hosts excuse for being an incoherent mess?

People, you realize that UFC is fake like the WWF? Please, tens years from now people will be making fun of UFC fans much like they make fun of those WWF fans who still think that stuff is real.

NFL Adam: I hope that’s sarcasm. Otherwise I can arrange an in-ring meeting between you and Jeff Monson (he trains with a friend of mine), and you can tell me just how fake it is. That’s one bad motherfucker, even if he did lose to Tim Sylvia (who’s almost a foot taller and 30 lbs. heavier).

Tattoo – Don’t worry, Sylvia will get his due when Cro Cop kicks the living dog piss out of him.

It just leaves a bad impression of the sport when Chuck makes an appearance like this. I don’t care if he’s high or drunk or whatever, I’m sure he’s not punch drunk, but the average person watching this wouldn’t know the difference.

Gary Cowgill has balls of steel. Maybe he can get Liddell to punch that in the marble tombstone for him after Liddell pulls his spleen out and brushes his teeth with it.
